Part 11
"Your eyes speak the truth when everything else is a lie"
Geet as promised call Dev after her diner, to which he answered. "I am really sorry Geet, I did not even consider your feelings", He said thinking about his act but Geet again did not let him. "Its okay Dev , we are dating and love each other right". "Thank you Geet, I don't know how much to thank God for sending an angel like you for me", He said feeling really happy. "I'm lucky to have you to Dev", She smiled. They talked for a while about their homework and also about Geet getting a new mobile. Maan felt happy watching Geet smile. He will work harder for her, he decided. Next day as promised, Geet waited for Maan outside a mobile shop. She was looking around when she saw the same watch Maan lent her. "This is the same brand , let me check the price", She said looking at the price tag and was shocked to read the amount. "5 lacs. OMG , how did he get this costly watch and why did he gave it to me", She was shocked. She looked around to see college students having fun. This made her think, Maan, he was so young too and is working hard at such a young age when he should be enjoying with friends. Her thoughts broke when she saw the ladies around her turn their heads and when she followed their gaze she saw they were gawking at Maan. He found her and rushed up to her. "I am sorry did you wait long,"He asked to which she nodded in negative.
"Come on let's get you a good mobile", He said. Geet looked through the phones and asked for the latest model. Incidentally both her and Maan chose the same model for themselves. "Maan you can get another phone it is the latest model and I want this", She said. "Geet you are just a student , I am working so I need a phone with latest features", He argued. The salesgirl saw them and said, "Sir, you don't need to argue with your girlfriend, you can have this one here , it is the same and it will convenient for both of you". Geet felt something strange but Maan cleared the air, "We are not lovers but family , thank you for this one. We will take both of them", He smiled. "Oh I'm sorry Sir , I will pack these", She said embarrassed at her assumption . They took their mobiles and bought the same sim cards for their phones for the convenience. Maan and Geet sat on a bench overlooking a wide area. "Geet call on my mobile then I can save your number", Maan said. "Okay", Saying this she called his number, to which he answered. "Oh, wait let me go a little far. It looks strange having a conversation through phone when we are sitting next to each other", Geet said.
She went a little far and the area overlooked the city. "Hello", She called again to which Maan answered. "You know Maan I never thought , you would agree for getting me a mobile this easily", She said over the phone facing her back to him . "Why would you think so", She heard his voice through the phone. "Umm, you know you would have said, that I won't study and will always call Dev and all", She smiled. "It is the first time you came to me for something, how could I have refused you. I will work hard to get you whatever you want", He said through the phone. "Oh , then you should be careful before you say that , I might ask something big the next time", She teased. "I will work harder", Came his reply. "Then how about I ask you to buy all the buildings within my vision right now", She poked thinking he is joking. "I will work harder, for you , I will work my hardest, it is the sole purpose of my life", His reply shocked her hearing the gravity in his voice she turned around to look at him only to see him looking at her.
His eyes held an unknown emotion which she wasn't able to decipher.
She felt that strange feeling again, this time emanating from him as well but before she could ask, she heard Sameera running up to him hugging him. "Happy Birthday Maan", She said hugging him tightly. Geet was shocked at this piece of information. "Thank you Sameera", He smiled. "You did not tell me it was your birthday", Geet murmured. "Its okay dear no need to worry about it", Maan spoke not wanting to hurt her but unknowingly it did hurt her. "Oh Maan, let's go I have made preparations", Sameera said dragging him away. "Geet, I will be back by evening , don't worry", Maan said.

Geet looked upon the retreating duo , she felt hurt not knowing his birthday. She went to a bakery, but then decided she might try baking a cake at home. She went back and downloaded a recipe. She tried but failed . After several attempts she finally baked the cake and waited for Maan. Sameera on the other hand took him to a lavished hotel. "Did you like the decorations Maan . I did it for you", She asked. "They are good, thank you Sameera", He smiled. They had their diner but Sameera got a little drunk again and Maan had to take her to her hotel room, not trusting anyone else with her safety as he knew her since childhood knowing how stupid she can get once drunk.
Just as he was about to leave she pulled him and hugged him, "Maan, I love you", She said. "Sameera, your jokes are going far enough , come one now leave me", He said trying to gently ease her arms around him. She was not ready to leave him, he heard his phone ringing and tried to get it but she disconnected the call. It ranged again and Maan took it only to see the caller being Geet. "Don't pick it up", She said. "Stop it Sameera, what has gotten into you. She must be worried", He said trying to get her off and did manage to get himself free but the call ended. "Did you never love me Maan", She asked knowing the answer very well.
Maan sighed, "Sameera we have been through this". "Why, why can't you look at me the way you look at her", She said getting his attention. "What do you mean", He asked. "You know very well Maan,she may be a kid not to understand but I am not, why are you so concerned about her when ..", Before she could complete he was enraged and held her arms tightly. "Not a word Sameera, not a word against her", He said enraged but calmed down a little when he saw her tears.

He tried to wipe her tears but she stopped him. "If I am not important to you Maan, why do you bother about my tears. Why can't we just return to our old lifestyles when there was only us, why", She asked. "Sameera, you are my precious friend. You know, I thought if everything was fine with her if she was happy , I might return to uncle and help him like he wanted me to, but after meeting her seeing what she has been through, I can't leave her, she is the most important person to me, has always been. I worked hard just for her, for a moment I don't even know what I will do if she ever said she don't need me , what purpose my life will have. I am sorry but I can't return to you", He said. "Maan please can you stay here , please I beg of you. Think of this as a favor you will be doing me", She pleaded. Maan nodded. The whole night he stood awake watching her sleep, "Why won't you understand Sameera, we never belonged to one another. You are a nice person even after all your selfishness I know there is a good heart in you, why don't you let that out, why do you want to hurt her and yourself".
Geet waited for him all night but he never returned, she was emotionally upset and slept due to tiredness. Maan came home early in the morning to see her sleeping uncovered in the living room. She woke up to the sound of the door opening. She was feeling a little dizzy and felt herself burning. She did not say anything and went to the cabinet. "Geet do you need something", Maan asked her watching her searching the cabinets for something . When she did not answer, he went up to her and touched her arm. "Don't touch me", She mumbled. "What are you saying Geet, why are you taking the first aid box, you are burning. Since when have you been ill", He asked concerned, but she pushed him . "I said don't touch me. Why would you care if I am dead or suffering just go back to wherever you came from, I don't need you even if I die. You don't care for me anyway", She yelled. "Why do you think so Geet", Maan asked stunned with her behavior. "I said just go aw...", She couldn't even complete when she fainted due to high temperature. Maan patted her , "Geet ...Geet, please wake up. I promise I will never leave you again, please wake up",He cried.
He carried her to the nearest clinic, calling for the doctor, a nurse came out and told him he has to wait till 9 so the clinic opens. "What about her, don't you see she has fainted call the doctor now", He said. The nurse was annoyed at the young man's behavior but she called the doctor as he was in no mood to go. The doctor came and prescribed him some medications. "What , only this but what about injections or something", He said still not satisfied. "She is just running a little temperature she fainted due to dehydration we have given her the treatment for that , you can take her home and give her something to eat before you give her this medications", She said. Maan nodded reluctantly and carried her back. He laid her down in the living room. After some time Geet opened her eyes to see Maan sitting next to her. "Are you alright now", He asked caressing her heard. She turned her face to the other side, "I am fine , you can go now . I should anyway get used to it as you will be married in a few years and then you won't have time for me . It is better I get used to it". Maan held her hand, "I will never marry anyone until you get settled"."But you left me ...you never thought, I waited for you even baked a cake", She whimpered. "I had the cake dear, thank you and remember I will always be here for you .I'm sorry about last night but trust me it won't happen again now sleep a little I am here", He said softly caressing her head and she slept knowing she is not alone, while Maan watched her sleep , praying this life of theirs never end unknown to him that this won't last long.
